OP, all I needed was to read this paragraph to determine you are an Andrew Luck fan. In the name of business and expendability you have no problem at all with kicking Peyton to the curb.

you are talking about a change? what change? It's time to get rid of a HoF QB that still has at least 3 great years left in him?

Peyton is still the best QB in the league. You will see him win another MVP in 2012. he is the best. that's all there is too it.

No, I am a Colts fan! If Andrew luck can help this team then I am all for it, but I would also be all for PM staying as well. Whatever it takes for the team to succeed I am all for regardless of what that might be. I would be for you being the QB if that would help the team but from reading some of your posts, well that just want happen. I mean there is no way you would or could " REPLACE " Manning right?

Yes, it is obvious I am a "Peyton Hater " He has done nothing for this team for the last 13 years! (sarcasm on). Some of the things being spewed over this are absolutely ridiculous, just like your post above.

Sorry to inform you but Peyton did not play last year and underwent 4 surgeries, so to say he is still the best QB in the league at this point is simply a huge stretch and homerism at it's finest.

The only thing you managed to get right in your post was this "HoF QB " the rest is just plain jibberish and speculation.

Smitto I am suprised you even have anything to say, with that constant Curtis Painter crap you spewed all of last year. I got NAUSEATED just reading about your obvious man crush on Goldie locks, how did that work out for you? The best thing for you to do is sit down and just read. Let the big boys do the typing.

so you are saying all these fans that want Luck here are also fools? Because pretty much all the Peyton haters and the people on Andrew Luck bandwagon are all saying he is gonna be a superstar.

So basically you are bing a hypocrite. You accept when people say he will pan out to be a star and you dont accept when peopledoubt that he will?

heres some news for you...

Andrew Luck is gonna be a bust. He will never live up to the hype and the high expectations that you and the rest of your little Andrew Luck fan club has set.

Get ready to clean up after yourselves when your little precious cookie busts

Another strong testimonial to support the intelligence of the anti-Luckers. I salute you.

First of all don't act like you know my stance mate, I've said many times that it doesn't matter what of the two QBs the colts get it would be great, I've always wanted a scrambling QB.. just cuz I won't claim Luck as a savior like some are quick to including you does not mean I'm against him.

As soon as some of his fans see him struggling they'll quickly start criticizing him. The chances of luck actually having a really stellar season is slim, its possible like cam Newton but he had a great running game to back him up, can't forget the fact that the panthers weren't starting over.

So yea lucks first season could very well be a avg one for a rookie

Fair enough. I won't pretend I know your stance, and you stop calling me 'mate'. I also agree Luck could struggle in his first season. Not sure where you got it that I thought he wouldn't.

I really just wish this entire ordeal would hurry up and get over with so some of these absolutely ridiculous posters would go jump off a bridge or whatever they're going to do and we won't have to see the nonsense they spread on this forum an a daily basis. I have a good feeling that in less than 2 weeks after Manning is cut that most if not all of the "Manning fans" will dissappear and the rest of us won't be subjected to the absurd posts they make constantly.

Or at least on this booard that would suggest what it has come to.

I cannot believe some of the posts on this board pitting Peyton fans and Luck fans against each other. I cannot open one thread without at least finding something, with underlying sarcasms about it.

Have we really gotten to the point where as fans we are that divided? Shouldn't we all be united as fans of a great "TEAM"?

Me personally, I am for whatever is best for the future of the team. Would I hate to see Manning go? Sure I would and no explanation is necessary. Would I like to see Andrew Luck play for this team? Yes, I sure would. He seems I like a great guy and by far one of the best QB prospects since Manning himself. It is not personal, football is a business and just like any other business things tend to change.

Just last year on my job a good friend and colleague of mine for many years was replaced. Well the new guy did not receive the best of welcomes, I was holding on to the past to tightly and felt bitter. " No way this guy could be better I told myself "

However once I got to know him, and gave him a chance he turned out to be a great person. We are now very good friends. It was because of this change that I had the opportunity, for that is what change does it presents opportunities.

All I am trying to say is change can be a very good thing. It does not have to be the "perrennial" end of the world.

"Change does not change tradition. It strengthens it."

"Change is a challenge and an opportunity; not a threat."

Sorry for the rant. Thanks for listening to an old fart. :)

wow... an adult seeking adult ,mature Colt chat on a Colt message board?

interesting....

You are kidding right?

Kind regards,

Well, I've been called worse.

      Taking Taylor off the field

      By DavePSL · Posted

      Not trying to over simplify but it is pretty simple. SS calls plays that he believes will work against a certain defense and he has confidence his players will execute that play. The results right now are that his players are NOT capable of executing those plays on a consistent basis enough to win games. The only question moving forward is, do we have good enough players to start to execute more consistently or not and is SS making it as easy as possible for players to be consistent. It's not just a talent thing. It's a attitude and smart thing and then the level of talent. Most of the time, the best players are the smartest players with the right attitude. How talented they are is a bonus. My point, i question our teams attitude and football intelligence as much as I question their talent. Ex.....Stopping the run is as much attitude as it is talent. A big part of why JT is JT, is because of his intellegence.

      Too Soon to Panic

      By lollygagger8 · Posted

      The biggest problem is that the rest of the team is playing like trash around the rookie QB.    Of course the essentially rookie QB that has played 6 NFL games is going to be a rollercoaster.  He's known to have accuracy issues, and is for some reason being forced to be a pocket passer.    When the highest paid O-line in the league can't block, that's problem.  When the WR's can't catch passes that bounce off their hands, that's a problem.  When the highly invested in $$ D-Line (like 5 1st or 2nd rd players) can't block and LB's get consistenly washed, that's a problem.  When the highest paid kicker in the league can't kick and gets hurt constantly, that's a problem.  When the defensive scheme is to "bend not break" but the bends are to the tune of 100 yards a series, that's a problem.   Now's the time to strike in other areas while you have a QB on a rookie contract. Actually, this all should've been figured out already by the GM and all positions should've been rock solid by now.
